Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch- 58 : Tip
Mark had spent the last five years concealing every bit of his original identity from being exposed in any manner, be it through someone else addressing him, or his words, dressing style, or even any minute gestures or body language.So, it was natural for the defensive instincts to kick in from time to time, especially in uncomfortable social situations where he was surrounded by people with a hostile attitude. And before he could have gotten some time to understand what was going on, even after the realization of his revealed identity had set in, he heard one of them speak up;"Look! It's Cassie's husband… or should we call you a delivery boy! Tell me, have you ever seen this much money at once, or tell me, do you know what real earned money feels like?"Saying this, he pulled out a bundle of notes and fanned it in front of Mark's eyes, adding;"I am willing to give you these, if you wipe the table over there… as a tip."Mark wanted to give a snapping reply to all of them in a very
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch- 59 : Breakfast
The moment Mark stepped out of the house, Cassie opened her eyes.She had awoken long ago, but had been lying in bed with her back to him and her eyes shut, all the while he showered and got ready for the day.It wasn't that she was happy to avoid him like this, but she still had a decision to make. And with what she had in mind, it was best for her to avoid confronting him this morning, not knowing whether or not she would be able to follow through with her plan after facing him. She climbed out of bed, and a few minutes later, she walked out of the bathroom in a fluffy bathrobe that had been placed inside, with her initials embroidered on it. A trail of steam followed her outside, and she paused in front of the mirror as a sudden thought struck her. Only after taking a shower did she fully realize where they were and got concerned about what she would wear, as her mind had been so cloudy that she hadn't even considered this point.Sighing reluctantly, she slid the door to the wa
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch- 60 : Spy
Alex dashed out barefoot without even thinking fully, when he saw the three drivers standing aside near the gate.Turning towards the garage, he saw all the cars standing there, apart from the model Mark had purchased most recently.He immediately felt a rising sense of panic; what was Cassie doing, leaving the house and searching for a cab while all these cars and chauffeurs were standing there with their hands tied!He hurriedly put on his shoes and jumped on the front seat behind the steering wheel and rushed outside. Keeping Cassie's car within his field of vision, he was also careful to maintain a safe distance, ducking behind other large cars whenever he got the chance.He saw the scenery changing from the hustle and bustle of the central part of the city, as the buildings slowly became sparse and the greenery became denser.He saw the taxi coming to a stop in front of a signboard that read 'Lockhart Women's Fertility and Maternity Care Clinic', and at once, it became clear why
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch- 61 : Slap
Alex almost couldn't believe his ears."What? What did you just say, miss? I'm sure you must be mistaken, I'm talking about Cassandra Wright. Just give me a moment, and I might be able to pull up a picture from, from a few weeks ago… That- that's my sister in law, and I just saw her leaving so upset- I think you're still mistaken. You can let me know if there are any complications, so that we can take good care of her.You don't understand, my best friend, he's from a very powerful family, and there's no medical complication they can't afford to get resolved. Maybe you're getting confused, let me just ask the doctor herself, you don't understand the gravity of the situation-""Excuse me, sir! You can't step into the doctor's cabin without an appointment, there are other patients sitting inside at the moment."Hearing this, Alex's steps halted; of course, he could not barge into someone's private appointment.At the same time, his mind was spinning with the words the intern had just
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch -62 : Bitterness
The bitterness of betrayal was something that is considered to be the most bitter experience in this world… And Alex was currently experiencing it!He was covering the long drive back home, and he couldn't help but think about the version of him that had been covering this same path in the opposite direction, less than twenty four hours ago. On top of that, he had been all happy, enthusiastic and overly excited after hearing the news of the arrival of a new member of their family, in this world.And compared to where he was now: ready to jump in the river of disappointment without any second thought! He had still not been able to believe it, even after reading the form, and he kept going back to the moment when he had been handed the clipboard by the intern.Thankfully, he had had the presence of mind to remove the form and fold it, to keep it safely in his pocket.He was not only feeling the betrayal on behalf of the role of the future uncle he was going to be, but he was feeling
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch- 63: Roofied
Mark turned his face in the direction of the new voice.Although in the first place, he was not very confident about them having anything in the vicinity of what he was in search of… But still, he was not ready to leave any option unattended.Thinking this, the first thing he did was to quickly nod his head in affirmation, showing his interest in the proof that they were referring to. And apart from that, he had also come up with the idea that it would be a great chance to make Cassie aware of the fact that her family was not as she thinks of them, they are.Deciding everything within the span of fifteen seconds, he finally opened his mouth and spoke;"Cass! Honey, would you mind if it takes a little longer to stay with me here?""No!"Cassie just managed to let out a single word from her mouth, being caught in the confusion of whether she should believe what she was seeing, or was it all just scripted.Still, having spotted the only possible option to see the light in the dark cold
Whispers of Wealth: The Mysterious Son-in-law Ch- 64 : Video!
Moira had barely just managed to slide the cocktail glass back in its original place, when a person showed up in front of her, like a genie who had popped up, seemingly out of nowhere.Anybody else would have taken a while to figure out who this person was, who had suddenly appeared in front of Moira… but not Mark. Only half of this person's left profile was visible in the video, and with the club's dark ambience and flashing lighting that moved through a spectrum of purple, red, green, yellow and blue within seconds, it was difficult to discern his features clearly.But even if that specific one fourth of this man's face had not been visible in the video, this was someone Mark could have recognized just by his shadow.Because it was none other than his brother, Matteo Rover. The slant of his wide shoulders was clearly visible under the tan colored linen blazer, and his walk was just the same as he remembered, so was the familiar gesture of him approaching someone with his head held

"How can I trust you two on this, that this video is not morphed? And how can I be assured there is nothing behind this video that you are still trying to hide from us-"Before"We… We can assure you that this video is not morphed, you have our word for it. We are even ready to testify, it's just that… just that-""It's just that we should not be punished for it."Jerry and Simon pleaded their case while joining their hands together in supplication.Cassie was looking at everyone standing there one by one, and was seeing everything going on in front of her.But she was still not able to believe completely on what her eyes were seeing. In just a matter of one day, her entire world had flipped on its head, and she felt numb… as if her head was being submerged underwater by an invisible hand. Somehow, she was still hoping that any moment now, the alarm bell would go off, and she would wake up from her dream to find out that it was all a dream… and nothing else.But the more she was hopi
